About me:

Location: Melbourne, Australia. Soon to be High Wycombe, England, as a GAP student working in a Boarding School.

Age: Eighteen

Obsessions: Harry Potter (no duh). Henry VIII. Medieval England. Ancient Egypt. Musical Theatre.

Animagus: A Unicorn.

House: Ravenclaw.

Post-Hogwarts Job: History of Magic Teacher - the first in a hundred years to make the subject interesting after Professor Binns finally moves on (he was only waiting for a competent replacement, you see). Later, the author of several books detailing the First and Second Voldemort Wars.

Favourite characters: Hermione. Harry. (I love Ron dearly, but he doesn't make the leap from well-liked to favourite). Sirius Black (and co. How can you not love the Marauders, minus Pettigrew and plus Lily Evans?). Severus Snape (I don't like him, necessarily, but he's one of my favourite characters to discuss and think about).

Status as an Author: Too chicken to post any fics... not even on fanfiction.net. That may change someday, however...

Status as a Beta: Would be more than happy to read over any works and provide constructive criticisms and grammatical help. Also willing to just discuss plot bunnies and ideas.

Past Featured Story The House Which Time Forgot by pdantzler starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 341]
After the Dobby incident at the beginning of the second book, Harry runs away, and Snape kidnaps him. In an old-fashioned house with no comforts and a huge black dog, Harry finds himself at Snape's mercy as Snape plays mind games and makes Harry live through different scenarios. Though Snape seems crazy and psychotic, Harry begins to see reasons behind Snape's sporadic behavior.

There is corporal punishment, but it is different from what I've written before. This is a Mean!Snape story for the most part. If you're looking for a cuddly story, go elsewhere please.

    That was... incredibly odd. I have to say, definitely the most original - and crazy - Snape adopts Hurry fic ever. Really. What were you on? :P Still, consider it a mark of approval that I stuck with it to the end - even if just to see where the plot was going!

Past Featured Story Never Say Remember by Malora starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 434]

In our world, Snape discovers a new Harry--one who sees him as a father he never wanted to be. Each Harry must learn to survive in a strange new world, and search for a way home.

Reviewer: honourary_weasley (Signed)
    Wow...It's been so long that I think I've forgotten what happened. This chapter was very, very confusing to read. Still, nice to know its done, and I can remind myself what happened when I have time.

    Author's Response: Sorry about that. I felt horrible about how long it's been. I slid in a few reminders, but I didn't want to recap the whole story. If something specific comes to mind that you think I can clarify, please let me know.

    Don't feel too horrible! There's only so much exposition you can cram into the final chapter. You had a complex plot, and I think it would make sense if you were reading it in one go. Good job for finishing!

    Author's Response: Well, thank you. :) It does feel nice to have the story completed. 

A Different Brand of Vengeance by Wooster starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 76]
There are many forms of vengeance. It can be just as satisfying to return cruelty with kindness as to return cruelty with equal cruelty...and sometimes it can be more dangerous and more insidious to do so. Faced with an eleven-year-old Harry Potter, Severus Snape has a decision to make: How does he like his vengeance?

Past Featured Story Life as Dictated by a Talking Hat by RhiannanT starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 922]
Before Harry arrives at Hogwarts, the faculty have a meeting and decide that Harry will need a mentor to help him adjust, keep him out of trouble, and make protecting him easier. They decide that this person should the Head of the House into which Harry is sorted, presumably Minerva McGonagall. But things, of course, don't turn out as planned, and Harry is harder to deal with than anyone expected. Nobody asked him if he wanted a mentor, after all...

NOTE: This story has a prologue. It is not necessary to the plot of the story, but if you wish to read it, it is called(predictably enough) 'Prologue to Life as Dictated by a Talking Hat'

Reviewer: honourary_weasley (Signed)
    I like! :D

    I want to get to the bit where Harry finally tells Snape more about the Dursleys - I want to see his reaction! Still, I like the pace this is going, and I hope Flint gets his a*** expelled for almost killing a first year... and for muggle duelling!

    Author's Response: We shall see...don't worry. I haven't forgotten about the Dursleys (or Flint, for that matter), and neither has Sev.

Title: Chapter 13: Small Deeds 08 Jun 2009
Reviewer: honourary_weasley (Signed)
    Aww! Sweetest present ever! I still think it's amusing that Snape makes Harry stand in the corner all the time - I know Harry hates talking, but I like talking... *hint hint* still, little bits are coming out nicely now.

    Snape and the twins was hysterical, as was his awarding ridiculous points in his class. Your twins are great! I love words like 'indubitably'; they most assuredly steal those from Percy, McGonagall and Snape, cos after all, they are always getting told off!

    Can't wait to see what the other professors make of Snape's scheme - and the rest of the gryffindors! But how will Flint get expelled? Oh - he'll want to leave. :P I get it... Snape's evil!

    Another great chapter. :)

    Author's Response: :-) Thanks!! I'm glad you like the bits with the twins - that was my favorite part to write, too.

    Happy Bunny!

    More stuff with Blaise and Ron and Harry please! Ron has no understanding of where Harry's come from, which makes it all the more wonderfully painful to read... nice job. And a realistic end to the conversation with Blaise. Harry - this Harry - would definitely have punched him.

    Author's Response: Hehe :0) Glad you like it, and I'll take your request into consideration. (Ideas are ALWAYS welcome - they make good cures for writer's block sometimes.) Yeah I couldn't figure out where that conversation was going until Harry took things into his own...well...fists. I feel bad for Blaise, now, though. He only wanted to help!

Title: Chapter 15: A Dog, a Cat, a Harpy, a Bat, a Friend, and a Freak 20 Jun 2009
Reviewer: honourary_weasley (Signed)
    Macbeth and Twelfth Night, obviously! Personally, I'd think Harry's a little young to have read Shakespeare on his own - perhaps he read an abridged copy =P

    Shape washing Harry's mouth out with the potion for saying he's a freak still seems a little odd to me, but I guess whatever works... and Harry feels a little too angry. I don't know. But hey, he's your Harry, and you know what you're doing with him, so I'll let it go.

    Liked the stuff with Blaise - can we have something with Ron next time? Ooh, can Ron and HArry have a fight? That would be a spectacle and a half - Weasley temper vs. Harry's 10 years of bottled up anger...

    :P Just a suggestion!

    Author's Response: Actually, I read the Taming of the Shrew when I was in fourth grade- younger than Harry, and understood it relatively well. Harry's in a particularly bad mood this chapter, so maybe that's what you don't like. He's got way too much to think about to not have it affect him. LOL I like your suggestion. I'll think about it. Thanks for the review!! Rhiannan

Title: Chapter 18: Honesty 26 Jul 2009
Reviewer: honourary_weasley (Signed)
    Oh, I like it a lot! Yes, a little depressing - but one step closer to Harry learning to trust grownups. I just hope Snape can keep his promise about nothing Harry says getting him into trouble...

    Boy, is Hermione ever going to be jealous! Can Harry please tell her right away?

    Author's Response: Ooooooo I like that idea!! I hadn't thought of Hermione's reaction. No worries, I WILL use that. Yey!!:0)

Title: Chapter 25: Safe 06 Jan 2010
Reviewer: honourary_weasley (Signed)
    Really excellent chapter! I love this story - this kind of Snape and Harry interaction is up there at the top of my list for fanfics I like, so it's all perfect, and I love getting my little emails telling me you've updated.

    The conversation between Harry and Snape at the end here was lovely, just right; you can see Snape's making progress, but Harry's still wary. Perfect.

    Can't wait for Christmas! Is Harry going to make Snape a present? I hope so!

    Author's Response: Yey!! Glad you like!! I'm looking forward to Christmas, too. I have LOTS planned. :0)
